Invalid Command Line when trying to generate a log file.
Hi,
Software I supply is used in Australia and the US.
In the MSI command Line (Package Definition | Builds | Bootstrapper Options) I have "/L*V [LocalAppDataFolder]nme_2201Upd.log" (no double quotes) to generate an installation log file.
On PC's (including Microsoft Surface and VM x64) in ...

Re: Update but NOT remove existing files.
Time really flies. Didn't think it was so long since I looked at this.
I can now create a patch to cover updating of exe or dll's. I did this as per Tutorials | Patch Authoring and using msi files.
As my initial question also notes that I need to update (insert new rows or update existing ones) a ...

Re: Update but NOT remove existing files.
Catalin,
Really appreciate quick reply.
Think I understand a bit better in creating MSI from EXE.
Since it is very late will try tomorrow but quick question.
When I create V2.exe I do so with the same Product code as V1.exe?
Thanks,
Brian

Re: Update but NOT remove existing files.
Catalin,
Since my install is an .exe (cannot remember why exe and not msi - been a long time ago maybe security issue with major client).
Looks like I cannot use Patch install since I do not have a msi file - old or new!
